REAL NICE!

Hi, Willow.

LOVE that name, by the way. This is great. Looser than my style, of which I'm envious! I'll make an attempt to offer advice, but remember, it's just my opinion. The side of his face on the viewer's right seems a little too rounded in your rendering. In the photo, his face seems a tad more angular, doesn't it? Also, as I darted my eyes back and forth between the 2, I felt that in your drawing, his neck is too far to the viewer's right. Draw an imaginary line from the edge of his neck (on both sides) up into his face and see the relationship to "landmarks", i.e., edge of nose, eyes, etc. If you do this, I hope you see what I mean! Do you intend to do more with the bottom? I'm so happy there's a section now for pastels, aren't you? Thank you Cynthia! Take care Willow, and I hope this helps.
